We have Chelsea next weekend, that represents a real opportunity to draw a line under the this terrible year and kick on.
Of course we could be back to square one by the same token.
You never know what Arsenal will turn up.
Losing to Chelsea away is hardly back to square one. That's a tough game in any season.
We had a bloody awful summer in the transfer market and a pretty disasterous start to the season, it has to be remembered we had some tough games and we lost them all and there were some other bad results too. From what Wenger's said recently morale was rock bottom over the summer and while we've lost a few good players it seems we might have lost more.
The last few games haven't been hugely convincing but we've won 5 out of 6 now, there's a bit of momentum building and you could see by the reaction of the players after the game on Saturday they saw it as an important win. Hopefully they're gaining a bit of confidence and we can work our way up the table.
We're not a great side any more but we're not suddenly a terrible one, we are good enough to push for top 4 IMO, I think that's the limit of our ambitions this year in the league and it's not the gimme it once was but we're not as bad as some on here have made out.
We may have won 5 out of 6 but lets look at the bigger picture shall we?
During that run, we've had the easiest run of home games of all time and even a draw in any of them would have been scandalous. We havent looked convincing in any of them and that tells me a lot more. One hard game we had was Spuds away and we got our arses handed to us then.
So whilst im pleased we are winning whilst playing crap, ultimately if we keep playing crap, we'll eventually stop winning
Right ray of sunshine aren't you beta.
A realistic ray of sunshine tbh.
You yourself have mentioned the Chelsea game coming up. If we play as we have done recently despite winning the games, we'll lose this one and we are right back to square one.
Still a couple of games to go before then albeit 2 home games. Im looking for 2 wins and 2 good performances where we insert our authority and show no mercy. Get confidence really sky high for the Chelsea game. Playing shit and winning 1-0 helps no one in the long term
